The Katie Klatsch.

The Mendelssohn singing society of
the Casino association is disbanded for
the season, and met their friends and
ladies at the Casino hall Saturday night
and INDUCED in social evening Of sing
ing, champagne and dancing. The toll
lets of the ladies were In many nstances
superb, and all the ladies looked beauti-
full.
At the beginning OF the evening Prof.
Steinfeldt played piano solo, followed
by Prof. Chappek, with the violin. Then
the ex-president Of the Mendelssohn,
Mr.. Albert Beckmann, addressed the
company, saying the Mendelssohn was
not dead, as reported, but was simply
sleeping. 1t would rise again.
Then the ladies sang the "Kaffe
Klatsch," or 4 O'Clock tea, and created a
good deal OF amusement by their many
good local hits.
1t Is understood that this popular
singing society will reOrganize in the
fall. Owing to 60 many of its members
having taken part In the late Saenger-
fest, q certain amount Of interest in this
society was lost and dangerous apathy
sprung up, which well nigh caused dis
solution.
